🚨 Fresh trailer for FRESH KILLS 🚨

We’ve been so excited for this film’s theatrical release, and it’s happening!! It’s a mob film you haven’t seen yet, but simply must. FRESH KILLS is less about the mafia world and more about the journey of finding a voice in a world that tells you not to have one.

A lot of people poured themselves into this project, and we’re so proud of all the hard-work that led to a truly unique and powerful film. Only in theaters June 14th.

To read more about Fresh Kills, hit the link below. Written, directed, and produced by Jennifer Esposito, a Quiver Distribution film.
